At the same time, the head of the Champagne nobility, Wesker Evans, had just received the envoys from the royal capital and excitedly convened a family meeting.

"Everyone, our Evans family's chance to turn things around has come!"

"Today, the evil Lars family has been wiped out by Doug Lars, who has come to his senses, as well as the reinforcements from the capital and friends on the border. Now, we only need to eliminate the last old Lars hiding in the west to completely end the Lars family's rule in the north and usher in a new era!"

Everyone present applauded excitedly. Many people had known about this for a long time, but they didn't feel relieved until Wesker confirmed it.

The Lars family has been working in the North for too long. If all the Lars are not eliminated in one go, they will inevitably face a horrific counterattack.

And now, the branch of the Lars family has completely turned to the royal family. Relying on the power of the royal family and the demons, it has occupied a large area of ​​​​territory including the river valley in one breath, and ambushed and killed Grand Duke Lars who wanted to return to the north on the road.

It can be said that as long as the last nail of the Lars family in the North is eliminated, the Lars family, which has ruled the North since the establishment of the kingdom, will be nothing more than a dog of Augustine in the future.

Of course, the means adopted by Doug Lars were not glorious. Not to mention the relevant regulations on the War of Heirs set by Grand Duke Lars, the noble wars of this era also followed very outrageous and primitive etiquette. For example, before the war, a declaration of war had to be formally submitted, a time and place had to be agreed upon, and everyone had to shout three, two, one together before the war began.

No matter how stupid and no matter how badly this rule should not be followed, he should not rely on the fact that he is a member of the Lars family and use diplomatic negotiations as an excuse to let his two eldest nephews leave the city and then send troops to steal the house separately.

Moreover, they even joined forces with foreign races to fight against their own people, which is a bit too shameless.

But no one cared about these details, because Doug Lars and his brothers won. Although the two older nephews escaped because they lured them out of the city before fighting, and the younger niece who was ambushed on the way also ran away, but at least Archduke Lars was dead.

Although the Winter Fortress, the base of Grand Duke Lars, cannot be taken in a short time, as long as the supply is cut off, the old men in the fortress can only wait for death or leave the city and surrender.

Now, as long as the gray-collar group where Lena Lars is located is overturned, a new era will arrive.

As the head of the Champagne nobility, Wesker had actually already placed a secret bet a long time ago, that is, betting on Doug Lars, or betting on the royal family behind Doug Lars to win. Obviously, now is the time to reap the rewards.

A small viscounty that has just developed can be said to be in their grasp for the Evans family. As long as they win this battle, the Champagne nobility will no longer refer to a group of nobles, but only to the Evans family. From then on, the Evans family will no longer be a noble family that can only bully in the western part of the North, but a truly first-class family.

Although the main force cannot come to the west because they have to suppress the territory they have just occupied, this is exactly the meaning of the Evans family's existence, not to mention the other allies who came to support this time.

Although Wesker would rather they didn't come, as soon as these people saw that the war was decided, they came over and said they wanted to work together to wipe out the remnants of the old Lars family. It was obvious that they came to share the cake, which made Wesker, who had already placed his bet, very unhappy. However, for the Evans family, who had already reserved the largest piece of cake, this was also a means to balance the western part of the North in the future.

Everyone shared the same corpse, so from now on they are all family.

"Everyone, let us warmly welcome the bard who brought about this alliance, who is also my personal confidant, the bard of the epic writing school - Lucanus!"

Amid the cheers of the crowd, the blindfolded bard, wearing brightly colored and exaggerated costume, entered the stage.

Everyone is already used to this attire.

Just as Lucanus was about to salute, he was helped up by Wesker.

"My Lord, you can't do that."

After saying this, Lucanus bowed stubbornly.

"Why not? You are the one who pointed me in the right direction. If it weren't for you, I would still be sitting in my room counting money."

Everyone laughed after hearing this.

To those who didn't know Lucanus, Wesker introduced him, "We are where we are today thanks to Mr. Lucanus' lobbying. Our family was able to seize the opportunity and become the leading family in the North. If we were still betting on both sides like Jefferson, we would still be a small noble who only knows how to count money at home."

Lucanus said modestly: "I just guided you to the right destiny. After all, we are the bards of the compilation school."

"We, the bards of the epic writing school, are different from those of the recording school. We are not only responsible for recording history, but we will also go out and create magnificent epics ourselves. And now, Lord Earl, you are the protagonist of my epic."

Before the complacent Wesker could be modest, Lucanus continued to introduce enthusiastically: "It is not enough to just wait for new heroes to create epics. A true bard should create epics and myths himself! I believe that under the leadership of the Evans family, mankind will regain the glory of the Roman Empire."

Roma was the last human empire with a history of a thousand years. It was also the legendary golden age of mankind. Both Capet and the Kingdom of Anjou split from the Roma Empire and both claimed to be the orthodox of the Roma Empire.

Of course, to people today, this empire is just a legend.

This was somewhat disrespectful, after all, it was still the era of Augustine, but no one present cared about it. They all stood up and applauded Lucanus, and even opened the champagne - in the physical sense.

"Once the coalition army arrives and eliminates the last Lars, I will present you with the epic story I carefully compiled. By then, you will be the hero who saves the North."

Lucanus took out his lute and sang for the people present.

In this atmosphere where both the host and the guests were having a great time, a discordant voice was heard.

"Father! Doug Lars not only violated the nobles' trust and rules, but also suppressed local merchants and exploited his own people just to please the demons. He even killed his own father. Do we really want to associate with such a person?"

Wesker stopped opening the champagne and found that it was his youngest son Jim who had a bad temper.

Although most families dote on their youngest sons, Wesker became more and more displeased with this son, so he assigned him many hard tasks of running around. Unexpectedly, the more the child ran, the worse his temper became, and the more he liked to go against his family.

"And from what I saw the last time I went to Gray Territory, their people are very united and their lord is very well-loved. I'm afraid it won't be that easy to attack them."

Wesker cursed angrily, "Good people can't make a living. What can a bunch of mud legs do? You might as well talk about the remaining fifty cavalrymen of Gray and White. Come on, drag Jim away and make him reflect on himself behind closed doors!"

"Father!"

Before Jim could say anything else, the guards at the side immediately dragged Jim back to his room.

"Okay, guests, I'm sorry that my son is not in his right mind. Let's continue to open the champagne! I'll pay for today's expenses."

Of course, Wesker felt that what Jim said made some sense. As the future ruler of the western part of the North and soon to be promoted to a noble of a first-class family, Wesker felt that he could not win as ugly as Doug Lars did.

Although it is not necessary to agree on a time like traditional nobles and have everyone shout "three, two, one" to start the war, the declaration of war still needs to be issued first and envoys must be sent.

After all, it's a sure win, and Wesker wants to win more decently. It would be best if he could win without fighting. Winning without fighting will also prevent those allies who are preparing to fight Lars together from having the biggest piece of cake.

However, Wesker still had to discuss this matter with Lukanus. After asking, Lukanus expressed his support very clearly.

"Subjugating the enemy without a fight will add more glory to your epic."

Hearing this answer, Wesker stroked his beard and could even imagine the scene of the once invincible Lars surrendering to him.
